Shock absorbers Bilstein or Dobinsons
JB74W. Stock springs. I have just fitted Bilstein 24-321730 front and 24-327336 rear. It has improved small bump compliance and the rebound rate of the rears is better matched to the springs.
I’d invest in Bilstien sport struts and shocks blue and yellow .they really improve the ride while keeping the stock feel
On my 2017 I just did bilstein 4600s without replacing the springs and it rides amazing, night and day from the rancho.
Swapped out the Toytec Aluma Boss 2.0 for Dobinsons MRR long travel in the rear & extended travel up front. Added Dobinsons billet UCAs and 600lb rear springs. Night & day difference in ride quality on the 2+ hour drive home
Ended up with Billsteins on the GLS. Better than the Sachs stock.
I have B8 Performance with Hotchkiss lowering springs. It rides great but it’s probably one step more than you need. B6 is likely the way to go.
Both great, sounds like you’d do well with boosting B6. Sporty and an upgrade without being harsh. We have them on my wife’s c5 Vett and she likes them
I have recently installed new front shock absorbers Bilstein b4 together with top and bottom mounts. car drives like new, before it was kind of scary on the highway, wobbly and unpredictable. now suspension is sturdy, reminds me of tesla model 3 driving, you feel bumps,but car is kind of sporty,strict,even at 130 kmh. already driven 1.5 k km on new suspension, no problems so far
In terms of the shocks themselves - Bilstein seem to have a solid reputation except for one former Bilstein fan on Youtube who had multiple failures in fairly quick succession a few years ago. I'm hoping their QA just took a hit for a while and the quality issues have been resolved, what's everyone else's experience of the longevity of these shocks? I doubt they'll hold up as incredibly well as the OEs have but I'd expect five years from them.
They’re complete garbage. i had one go bad at 11k. I also had all of them replaced due to the bottoming out issue on my diesel. I couldn’t wait to get them off my Jeep. They last about 20k. Replaced them with Bilstein 5100s.
